Food System in Cultivation World-Chapter 488 - 451_2

But even with such achievements, after completing them, what awaited him was not the cheers of the masses, fame and fortune, nor a smooth path to the skies——

On the contrary, today someone told him that he might encounter an unprecedented catastrophe because of his achievements.

The two people present today were one his friend, the other his mentor.

Yet neither dared to speak clearly, as to exactly what power or person would bring him this crisis.

Even though everyone was discussing this issue in depth, there were still many taboos in their words.

At least, to the Little Mouse and Wei Yuan who were eavesdropping, the conversation among the three seemed vague and mysterious.

Chen Xu was hosting Feng Yuanbai and Wu Zhengze in the small hall, while Wei Yuan and Ah Shi huddled together in the west wing.

The two Little Demons were both stretching their heads, listening intently to the conversation of the three.

But the more they listened, the more confused the two Little Demons became.

Little Mouse couldn’t help but "squeak squeak squeak," gently speaking in beast language to discuss with Wei Yuan:

"Hedgehog, what on earth are they talking about? Why so many riddles? This is driving a demon crazy!

Sigh, they say the Scholar is in danger.

The Scholar is so powerful, what danger could possibly harm him?"

Indeed, in Ah Shi’s heart, having witnessed many of Chen Xu’s battles, its confidence in Chen Xu had grown tremendously.

Little Mouse stretched its head, the furry little face slightly furrowed, but its chin raised proudly:

"Even the fiercest spirits were easily taken down by the Scholar in no time, all laid waste.

The Scholar now, is unfathomable!

Hmph, if any more villains come, they surely won’t be a match for the Scholar’s hand."

Little Mouse was this proud, but beside it, Wei Yuan, by nature, held a touch of pessimism.

Wei Yuan also stretched its head, listening carefully to the conversation of the three in the hall, initially bewildered, finding it hard to understand.

But later, it gradually analyzed and came up with a conjecture.

Wei Yuan, like some demons with ruminative abilities, carefully chewed on every word spoken by the three.

Until a certain moment, it suddenly said to Little Mouse:

"Ah Shi, do you know that in this world, only one person can make these officials keep their mouths shut and speak in riddles everywhere?"

Ah Shi didn’t react in time, dumbly asking back: "Who is it? Tell me, Hedgehog, don’t make me guess."

Wei Yuan sighed helplessly, its voice thin and seemed to drift in the wind.

"It’s that person, the one sitting in the Imperial Palace, in the Purple Chen Hall.

Wen the Great Scholar, what a status he has, to quietly confine him, who else could it be?

Brother Chen is indeed powerful, but if he is to go against the entire Dynasty, he, he..."

Wei Yuan’s voice trailed off slightly trembling, unable to say the next words, not daring to speculate on the consequences.

But Little Mouse, on the contrary, was ignorant and fearless, first "squeaked" a few times, saying: "So it’s that villain, how infuriating... squeak squeak! What’s he after?"

It’s infuriating, so infuriating, Little Mouse was about to explode with anger.

Wei Yuan said: "Can’t you guess? What Lady Meng covets, that person covets too...

The Scholar now, is a treasure beyond measure, he is holding a treasure with a sin."

Indeed, holding a treasure with a sin.

In the small hall, the indescribable silence actually lasted only a few breaths.

Wu Zhengze urged Chen Xu to be wise and protect himself, to first take a step back.

Feng Yuanbai remained silent, he just watched Chen Xu.

Their eyes on him, Wu and Feng, carried a tone of deep sympathy and regret.

Suddenly, Chen Xu spoke.

He asked Feng Yuanbai: "Brother Feng, is your purpose for coming today not originally to ask me to avoid and escape?"

Feng Yuanbai was taken aback, did not speak.

However, Chen Xu instead laughed and said, "I speculate, Brother Feng’s original intention, was perhaps to ask me to lend a hand, to save Master Wen.

Or perhaps, to pierce the sky!"

What a phrase, pierce the sky.

Chen Xu uttered these words, stunning like thunderstones hitting the earth, his once calm face now immediately showed an exceptionally lively and uninhibited demeanor.

He was young, after all, in a time of high spirits.

As the saying goes: "With gall and guts, hair standing on end. In a fleeting conversation, life and death alike!"

Three cups binding a promise, five mountains weigh light.

With such a demeanor, how could Chen Xu be someone who would hide and protect himself upon hearing of a crisis?

He laughed, like the mountain wind outside the window at this moment, sweeping across the sky’s changing clouds.

Wu Zhengze seemed about to speak but hesitated.

Chen Xu said, "Master, I’m afraid now I am just moving grand endeavors.

Even if I could hide today, how can I hide from tomorrow?

Would I really have to hide for a lifetime?

Or perhaps not just one life, but another one to follow?

Though I have some reputation, if I were to hide away now, I would indeed enjoy some peace and tranquility, but what about my friends and family?

The people of Xiaowan Village, the Master, Brother Feng, how could they avoid being the targets of that person’s anger?"

Wu Zhengze’s lips moved slightly, he wanted to say:

...

Chen Xu said, "Master, I fear I am now like a wandering merit.
